33-years-old Mr. M.R.G from Andheri, Mumbai (PIN 18404) consulted Dr. Shah on 28th February 2012 for the treatment of Anxiety Neurosis.
His anxiety was manifested in the form of vibration sensation in the body along with weakness in extremities for one year. His gait was normal. He had no cramps in the muscles. He had taken a few multivitamins as prescribed by a local physician. Then, he started realizing that all his complaints had increased before any assignment at work. He was a broker in a major broking firm in real estate.
Slowly, his frequency of complaints increased and he developed panic symptoms, such as trembling of hands and perspiration, which lasted for a few minutes. It started affecting his work and career. He used to get these complaints once or twice a week.
He came across an article on anxiety neurosis written by Dr. Shah on our website and decided to consult. All his details were noted with care. Basically, he was a jovial person, but, due to work pressure, he developed anxiety. He had a constant fear of business loss.
Dr. Shah studied his case details and suggested that the complaint of vibration sensation might be because of smoking. He was a heavy smoker. He was advised to taper smoking slowly and quit smoking.
